Potlatch and the articulation of modes of production: revisiting French Marxist Anthropology and the history of central Africa
2016
This essay seeks to understand the potlatch as indicative of a wider category of exchange. Looking at the similarity in wild exchange rituals between northwestern America and central Africa the article argues that potlatch ritual is not as an archaic remnant but a product of the interaction between capitalist and t u rnan' modes of production. In this dynamic 'human modes of production' (see anon) did not become capitalist, but rather there was a ritual escalation related to a series of non-capitalist imperatives based in rights in people and theatrical displays of authority. In constructing the theoretical structure used to make this case I draw on and seek to rehabilitate the work of French Marxist Anthropologists working in central Africa, above all Georges Dupré and Pierre-Philippe Rey.

TRINIDAD: CITIZEN GROUPS ACCUSE PRESIDENT OF POWER GRAB
2009
In an editorial, Trinidad's NEWSDAY said the draft document \"not only alters the mechanics of the Constitution but undermines the most universal tenets of constitutional accountability,\" while the Express newspaper argued that it is going to be difficult \"to agree to a constitution that gives the sitting prime minister or, for that matter, one from any party in power, the sweeping powers that the 'working document' throws up.\" \"This is a clear interference by the executive in the prosecution process,\" [Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj] said. \"The manipulation of the prosecution process is one of the greatest weapons which has been used by dictators to silence politicians, judges, trade unionists, members of the media and others who are opposed to or give critical views against presidents who are dictators.\" \"The DPP's [director of public prosecutions] powers will now be so fettered by the office of the attorney general that he would really be totally lacking independence and could be manipulated by politician,\" he said. \"The judiciary will become like another arm of executive.\"
